LG Viewty to make December debut in Southeast Asia

Holiday shoppers will have one more 5-megapixel camera-phone to choose from when the LG Viewty KU990 makes its debut in Singapore this December. Priced at S$838 without mobile plan, the HSDPA-enabled phone features a full 3-inch touchscreen display, much like the Prada phone. According to LG, the KU990 is the first mobile in the company's "new line of high technology handsets".

The Viewty is certainly LG's most powerful camera-phone yet. In fact, the company calls it a "professional-level camera-phone". Its strong suite of imaging functions include a 5-megapixel camera (certified by Schnider-Kreuznach) with auto/manual focus, image stabilizer and Xenon flash. The Korean electronics maker claims the camera will perform well even in low-light conditions, thanks to its high ISO 800 capability and SmartLight feature. Other noteworthy features on the Viewty are 120fps video recording, Bluetooth stereo, microSD card slot, DivX video playback and full Internet browsing.

Singapore users will be the first in Southeast Asia to get hold of the Viewty handset, followed by other selected Southeast Asian countries in the coming months.
